I took them for 6 months and they made me sick the entire time. Now that I've stopped, I have my period every two weeks, extreme cramps (worse than before birth control!), my entire face has broken out (I've never had acne in my life!) and I'm going crazy! Why is it punishing me for not taking it anymore?!?!

(btw, i talked to my doctor and she said i am fine and all these side effects are "normal" wtf!?!?!!!)

During and the day after drinking i get depressed and down - why is this? Its not everytime i drink, so its getting to the point where i think perhaps i should just not drink at all to avoid feeling like that. Why does it have this effect on me and not others? I have been treated for depression in the past, but havent been for at least 2 years now.

I've been fighting for my life for over 2 years. I was told that yet again I have cancer...again. I was told this time that it's terminal, that I had a year tops...and that dear friends was well over 2 years ago. This summer I came very close to losing this battle. All the radiation and treatment had caused a hole in my bladder. I had a very major surgery to repair, but then staff infection set in which led to me nearly losing my battle, another major surgery & a temp colostomy. I seemed to be on the ment and 3 weeks ago I started having daily seziures. The least I've had is 3 the most 13, my temp stays between 101 and 105 and they don't have a clue as to the reason.

When is enough enough? When does God say this poor girl has suffered enough and where and how do I find and get the strength to find my way through this latest setback. I don't like feeling this way, sorry for myself, but I gotta tell you I'm not supergirl either...Does anyone have any advice?

I have had no sexual experiences, never used drugs, never had a blood transfusion, and was not born with it. I have been vaccinated for hep b.

I do, however, work in a library where I sometimes process materials that could potentially have dried body fluids on them (like blood and maybe semen?). Do you think this puts me at risk for the diseases I mentioned?

I drank milk and fish oil? all my life and I'm still stuck at 4' 10" at age 14!!! everyone is at least 2 in. taller than me, and I feel so ashamed. Maybe both my parents being 5' 2" is a factor, but my grand parents were like 5' 10" and up! I was never malnurished or anything and im OK fit. so why?

I'm wondering if I had endometriosis that went undiagnosed, or if other people have had the same period problems I used to have, without there being a problem.

After I had a baby, the symptoms eased up, but prior to that, I had very heavy periods.

I went through an ULTRA tampon every 30 mintues for at least 3 or 4 days of my period, and had to use super-plus the rest of the days. Periods were usually 7-8 days for me. The cramps were crippling. I literally couldnt move, eat, or talk, when they hit me, and pain killers didnt touch them.

Do those things mean there was something wrong with me? I never saw a doctor, just lived with it. Has anyone else had periods like that and been fine? I'm in my second pregnancy so it doesnt seem to have affected my fertility. But could there be some kind of problem that doctors have missed?

i'm 19 years old, i'm an athlete, and i think i have diabetes. the past year i have been having the urge to pee atleast once or twice an hour and i am always lightheaded and in need of sitting down. lately though i have been unable to eat sugary foods because i get this feeling like i have too much sugar in me than my body can handle. also i notice that my body parts "fall asleep" a lot quicker than they use too.

i know these are all side effects of diabetes, but they can also mean other things. i'm very scared that i might have diabetes. nobody else in my family has ever had the disease.

what kind of tests does the doctor give you & can you explain what you do, not just the name of them? (sorry im very nervous... that's why i think i'm just paranoid)

We i went to the doctor a week ago tomorrow, and i got tested to see if i had a bladder infection. and i do. But this is the 4th one i have had this year. And they told me to take these pills twice a day for a week and then one pill a day for a week. then i have to go back to the doctor and see if that got rid of it or not. and if i dont the i have to get surgery. The doctor said that they stuck a tube up your pee hole , so that they can open the passage. Do you know what surgery that is called??And does it hurt? please tell me what i should know about it. Please and thank you.

I am currently on Synthroid and about to make the switch to Armour. My TSH is .7 on 100mcg of Synthroid, but I am gaining weight and am tired. My thyroid has been removed. I've been reading that on Armour, most people take about 3 grains a day and suppress their TSH to below .01 but keep there free t3 and free t4 ranges optimal. Is this accurate? Has anyone made the transition to Armour...how did it go? how much synthroid vs. armour do/did you take?

I'm thinking of getting my fella to use hair removal cream on his man bush... its not overly hairy... i just thought i'd be fun. Make him look like a horse and i get out of coughing up hair balls :P

I know you have to be careful when using it on lady parts but will the same apply on using it on man bits?

I'm not going to be smothering his shaft in it, just his groin, his bush and on his balls... the skin around there shouldn't be anymore sensitive than normal skin right? Its just typical skin?

If it causes him any pain at all he's the type to milk it for all its worth so i thought i'd best be sure ;)

I am about 20 pounds overweight and I have been dieting nd exercising for about 3 weeks and still no result. I need someone to name a surgery that helps me lose weight fast and one that is the least painful in terms of recovery and prodedure. And one that doesn't take a long time in rehab. If you know a special exercising routine that helps you lose weight fast please let me know !
Thank You!

please dont talk about marriage, because as you all know, that is something man invented as oppossed to sex.
about their body not being prepared for it, well people, you sure know nothing about the human body.
about them being ignorant about sex and about using a condom, etc, well, thats of course true, but that can be arranged, how? by EDUCATING THEM.
and about not being ready for sex, well, its true, alot arent ready t handle it, but lets face it, sex isnt just for marriage and neither only for love, sex is fun, sex hurts no one if you know what youre doing, its part of OUR INSTINCTS.
I can tell you, I had sex when I was 13, and I keep having sex with alot of girls now, I just have a rule, never lie, never manipulate and make someone believe you love them when you dont, because thats what hurts, and I know Ive been hurt that way, but free fun sex has never hurt me, and neither was the 12 year old girl who I slept with when I was 13 hurt, were even still friends
